Situation, size, and general arrangement of the grounds, 

 combine to make 



TREGOTHNAN 



the most ducal of Cornish estates. In common with other 

 residents along " the English Rhine," Viscount Falmouth and 

 his ancestors have bestowed considerable attention on the 

 cultivation of Rhododendrons, and it is satisfactory to know that 

 among the extensive collection of these beautiful plants which 

 there flourish, such tender varieties as Lady Alice Fitzwilliam, 

 Fragrantissimum, FdgewortMi, and Princess Alice have proved 

 perfectly amenable to the Cornish climate. In the spring of the 

 year the gardens and shrubberies at Tregothnan are flecked with 

 the richest of colours, and even when winter's icy hand has put 

 a check on vegetation in other parts, its sunnier nooks have a 

 most seductive charm. A selection from its foreign introductions 

 will show how alert the Boscawens have been to the inducements 

 offered by the climate of the county for sub-tropical gardening : 



Abelia rupestris. 

 Acacia afiinis. 



,, dealbata. 

 Akebia quinata.
